Abstract

Separated shear layer oscillations in open cavities can induce drag, noise and vibration. This issue has many aerospace applications such as Landing gears and control surfaces [1]. Recently, phase-cancellation [1] and offinstability frequency excitation [2] & [3] approaches have been incorporated in different open-loop and feedback control systems. Despite the high control performance of these systems, further enhancement is still possible. In this study, steady jets, as shown in fig. 1, are forced through 2mm, two-dimensional slots at the leading and trailing edges of the cavity. In order to study the performance of this novel approach, different cases will be examined, including: jet combination (blowing from cavity leading edge, suction from cavity leading edge and blowing-suction), jet angle (parallel or deflected jet) and jet-to-free stream velocity factor /.E
